CIDR Address is not within CIDR Address from VPC

Tags:

I have tried every combination of IP ranges for my CIDR block on my new VPC for AWS.

My current CIDR is 172.31.0.0/16

171.31.0.0/32 (CIDR Address is not within CIDR Address from VPC)

How do I fix CIDR address is not within CIDR address from VPC?

In this case, there can be 2^8 IP addresses i.e. from x.x.x.0 to x.x.x.255. 3) /16 in CIDR x.x.0.0/16 means fix the first 16 bits and use the last 16 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case, there can be 2^16 IP addresses i.e. from x.x.0.0 to x.x.255.255. 4) /8 in CIDR x.

Can VPC CIDR and subnet CIDR be same?

You cannot have multiple subnets with the same (or overlapping) CIDR blocks in the same VPC, though, because AWS treats it as one continuous network.

What is CIDR in AWS VPC?

Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation is a way of representing an IP address and its network mask. The format of these addresses is as follows: An individual IPv4 address is 32 bits, with 4 groups of up to 3 decimal digits. For example, 10.0. 1.0.

How do I add a CIDR to VPC?

Open the Amazon VPC console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/vpc/ . In the navigation pane, choose Your VPCs. Select the VPC, and then choose Actions, Edit CIDRs. Choose Add new IPv4 CIDR.

An IPv4 address consists of 32 bits.

1) /32 in CIDR x.x.x.x/32 means use all 32 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case just one IP address is possible.

2) /24 in CIDR x.x.x.0/24 means fix the first 24 bits and use last 8 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case, there can be 2^8 IP addresses i.e. from x.x.x.0 to x.x.x.255.

3) /16 in CIDR x.x.0.0/16 means fix the first 16 bits and use the last 16 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case, there can be 2^16 IP addresses i.e. from x.x.0.0 to x.x.255.255.

4) /8 in CIDR x.0.0.0/8 means fix the first 8 bits and use the last 24 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case, there can be 2^24 IP addresses i.e. from x.0.0.0 to x.255.255.255.

5) /0 in CIDR 0.0.0.0/0 means fix the first 0 bits and use the last 32 bits to form a range of addresses. In this case, all the possible IP addresses are included in the range.

Hope it helps you in understanding your problem that first 16 bits needs to be fixed in x.x.0.0/16 CIDR.
